A CITGO retailer in Mount Pleasant, Michigan is stepping up to Fuel Good in its local community during the ongoing COVID-19 public health crisis. The Pickard Street CITGO is providing $0.99 meals for children unable to rely on school lunches during the statewide stay-at-home order.

School-aged children can purchase a sandwich, piece of fruit and their choice of juice, milk or fountain drink for less than a dollar. While the store’s deli is not open, sandwiches and other cold deli items remain available for purchase for adults.

The station, located at 910 W. Pickard Street in Mount Pleasant, is open from 6 a.m. – 9 p.m., and closes nightly for a deep cleaning of all facilities.

For decades, generations of CITGO employees and local marketer and retail partners have made giving back a pillar of our business. We’re thrilled to see the outpouring of fueling good works in this difficult environment when our communities need each other most.
